net/tsocks does not complete configuration on MacBook Pro

[listificator@…]

net/tsocks does not build on my MacBook Pro. I'm running 10.4.7. The error given is as follows, and I will attach a copy of the referenced config.log to this report.

---> Configuring tsocks Error: Target com.apple.configure returned: configure failure: shell command "cd "/usr/local/var/db/dports/build/_usr_local_var_db_dports_sources_rsync.rsync.darwinports.org_dpupdate_dports_net_tsocks/work/tsocks-1.8" && CC=/usr/bin/gcc-3.3 CPP=/usr/bin/cpp-3.3 CXX=/usr/bin/g++-3.3 ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-conf=/usr/local/etc/tsocks.conf --libdir=/usr/local/lib --mandir=/usr/local/share/man" returned error 77 Command output: checking build system type... i386-apple-darwin8.7.1 checking host system type... i386-apple-darwin8.7.1 checking for gcc... /usr/bin/gcc-3.3 checking for C compiler default output file name... configure: error: C compiler cannot create executables See `config.log' for more details.

I don't have access to an Intel Mac, but was able to find a few differences between your attached log and what happens on my machine anyway.

• I don't think it's a fatal problem, but your prefix is /usr/local, where mine is /opt/local. Did you by any chance run configure manually instead of going through "port install"?

• The real problem that I can see is that your C compiler seems to be broken, as indicated by line 76 of your log:

"gcc-3.3: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory"

[I'm assuming you're not a programmer in the following.] Can you save the following line to a file called hello.c:

int main() { puts("Hello World!"); }

then run the following commands in a terminal:

gcc-3.3 hello.c ./a.out

and tell me what happens? If this proves to be broken, reinstalling the (universal binary) development tools might fix tsocks.

My prefix is /usr/local because that's where I installed DP, nothing else to it. It's not, however, a matter of reinstallation; gcc 3.3 doesn't really work on Intel Macs. It's provided for compiling PPC software on Macs running 10.3.x. You can't use it to make something that'll run on Intel.

Should now build with the default C compiler, rather than forcing gcc 3.3.

Patch against net/tsocks/Portfile

[darren.bane@…]

Replacement for net/tsocks/files/patch-configure.in

[listificator@…]

The two patches seem to work like a charm. Thanks!

Created an attachment (id=10058) [edit] Replacement for net/tsocks/files/patch-configure.in

You should overwrite net/tsocks/files/patch-configure.in with the contents of this file.
